Description: This book is a comprehensive and practical guide to the use of ultrasound for characterizing fluids rapidly and noninvasively. Focusing on ultrasonic velocimetry, the author covers the basic topics and techniques necessary for successful measurements of emulsions, dispersions, multiphase media, and viscoelastic/viscoplastic materials. Advanced techniques such as scattering, particle sizing, and automation are also presented.

As a handbook for industrial and scientific use, Ultrasonic Techniques for Fluids Characterization will be indispensable to chemists and chemical engineers using ultrasound for research or process monitoring in the chemical, food processing, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, biotechnology, and fuel industries.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 191-204) and index.
